Carson Pirie Scott: Louis Sullivan and the Chicago Department Store (Chicago Architecture and Urbanism) - Hardcover
Synopsis
Long recognized as a Chicago landmark, the Carson Pirie Scott Building also represents a milestone in the development of architecture. The last large commercial structure designed by Louis Sullivan, the Carson building reflected the culmination of the famed architect's career as a creator of tall steel buildings. In this study, Joseph Siry traces the origins of the building's design and analyzes its role in commercial, urban, and architectural history.

Original Cloth. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: NF. First Edition. Book is fine. Dj has minor edgewear. Inscribed and dated in 1989 by the Author to a colleague. The number line on this book is a tad baffling but I believe it to be a first given the date of the inscription. Signed by Author(s). Book. Seller Inventory # 016616
